20 Fenchurch St / 2 images

The bulgy building also known as the Walkie-Talkie, designed by Rafael Viñoly. Nearing completion, with southern brise-soleil now in place, and over 90% let. I think it's fair to say its design looks better in sketches and renderings than it does in its realization — likely to be a strong contender for next year's Carbuncle Cup. City of London.
